I don't know about sand. I mean I'm not saying the other dude is wrong, but I feel like I read something bad about sand. I recently used lots of perlite mixed with good organic soil/compost and some worm castings. I also threw in some bone meal because we use it on other plants on the farm. The strawberries we planted got HUGE with just a little bone meal under the soil right below the roots but not actually touching the roots. So ya just my 2 cents. I don't think you can go wrong with good stuff like perlite, compost, worm castings, etc.

soil mix

if u got acess to a truck u can buy bulk tripple mix for about $20 a yard (a yard is allot prolly enough to last u the season atleast) then buy a big compressed bundle of peat moss n some perlite thats the best cheapest way in my opinion n u can add any nutrients u prefer to it
